AG_TextFont() and AG_TextRender() must be invoked from widget draw()
context. I assume this code fragment is part of a custom widget?
Was the AG_FetchFont() call successful? Have you tried setting it
as the default font and using something like AG_TextMsg()? You can't
have UTF-8 in the C source, but you can insert the literal UTF-8
sequences byte-by-byte with \x in format strings.
There is no equivalent of SDL_EnableUNICODE(), since Unicode support
in Agar is enabled by default.
